Customer Reviews

Sister Act that's too HOT!! electrifying an on-the-edge read

Sister,Sister was too "GOOD." It was the last of Eric's books that I read. I enjoyed seeing how it all started for him and I wasn't disappointed in the least. I read the book in 2-3 days and hated that I finished it when I did. I've been a fan of Eric's for awhile and never seem to be disappointed with his books. I find it refreshing that he can write from a male/female point of view and he does it so very well. Sister,Sister opens the door to the saga that carries over into almost all of his books. You see just what somepeople will do to be in a relationship or so-called one anyway. Eric shows us, how some are blinded by the "thought" of love and how it can make you think and do some crazy things, in the name of love. The story was funny, witty and edgy. Just like I like them. Each page left me hunger for more. Much more. This one is a bestseller in my book. I thought it was clever that Cheaters filled in the blanks and cleared up somethings for me. Eric is an awesome writer and I turn people on to him every chance I get. If you haven't experienced him yet what are you waiting for? Forever a EJD fan and awaiting the next bestseller ALWAYS.

Enjoyed this book

I really enjoyed how Chiquita and Inda "bonded" after they were both cheated on by the same man. The other characters in the book were entertaining and well developed as well. Eric has a writing style that is not only believable but he'll have you laughing as well. This was the first book by Eric Jerome Dickey that I read and after I finished it, I ran to the store to buy "Friends and Lovers". I have since read everything Eric's written and I'm anxiously awaiting "Liar's Game". This was the starting point for me becoming a huge Eric Jerome Dickey fan. Buy this book. You won't be disappointed.

very good book

The book was very good. If you want to laugh hard, get this book. I found the plot to be sincere and very realistic. Mr. Dickey keep up the good work.

FUUNNNNNYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent read. Please bring Inda's character back she is so real and so funny!!!! Her character had me hysterically laughing on the subway and anywhere else I read it. The book as a whole is so (like the other books) so realistic & funny and a great read. It was hard to put down! I'm going out today to buy Milk in My Coffee and can't wait 'til Cheaters is on sale. Eric is awesome! It amazes me the way he captures a woman's inner thoughts, feelings and emotions so well! (Keep 'em coming Eric you are definitely blessed with an incredible gift).

Warning. . . This Book Is Addictive

* * * * * 5 Star rating "ERIC JEROME DICKEY is an incredible writer." His book, Sister, Sister held me captive for 6 hours one Sunday and I must say when he set me free with his words, I actually missed it. The book deals with a number of topical issues but it is not didactic nor is it preachey. In fact, he spins a very funny and unpredictable story set in sunny California. As an aspiring author I must warn you, if you like books that are not written with emotion or books that are not topical or books that do not make you think or books that are predictable, DO NOT READ THIS ONE, because it is addictive. But if you enjoy a book that will take you to another world, one in which you are sure to miss after reading the last page, you will undoubtedly enjoy. . . Sister, Sister.
